[Droid Incredible Accessories] rotaryboots:
I just got my TPU case in the mail yesterday, black with smoked back. Here's my take on it:

I already had one of those black silicone hard rubber-ish feeling cases on my phone and I liked it, but it had kind of a honeycome back and I couldn't see the back of the phone like the words HTC and my little droid eating an apple sticker, so I bought a TPU smoked case.

I like how I can see through the smoke

I like how the rubber-ish silicone part of the TPU case is just like my old case

I don't like how the buttons on the case take more pressing than my old case did to activate the phone's button underneath. My old case had little indents underneath the case buttons so it made pressing the buttons easier.

The hybrid smoked backing does scratch easy. So far I have one day of use on it, and already I'm getting typical scuffs and scratches all over it

I'm thinking my old case offers a little more protection than this new TPU case

I like the price of the TPU case, set my back 6 bucks shipped

I like how it fits like a glove

I like the hard backing idea they have and being able to see through the smoke

Overall, I'd buy another TPU case if need be, but if they start offering my old case with a non-honeycome more see-through backing, although not a completely hard backing like the TPU case, I'd buy one of those first.

I've ordered from that seller before. The transaction went smooth.

That case looks nice. It doesn't have the bubble texture the vzm case has.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] lioryte:
I've had it for a long time. Only thing I don't like is that its harder to put on/off than silicone. Doesn't add much bulk and liking the fact that you see through the back
[Droid Incredible Accessories] eyeheartmozart:
cool thanks for the pics

Ordering one of these to modify for use with the 2150 mAh extended battery. I'll post pics of my mod when I'm done. Thanks for the review, this thing is dirt cheap and still hard plastic. Stoked.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] RageXicity:
I'm thinking of a new option since the silicone sticks in the pocket and attracts the lint too xD if I can find a case like this cheap then I'm sold
[Droid Incredible Accessories] whitedragon551:
I have one of these and it didnt get along with my Zagg screen protector edges. So I left the case off. The screen is worth more than the case.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] pete_kowalski83:
I have a black n red case like these to get rid of cheap, theyre the vzw high gloss silicone...pm me for info
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Afteraffekt:
I ordered the same case, but was white, and I hated it, to install, or remove it, the phone has to "give" just a little, also the front sides of the phone's touch screen are hard to get to and you have to push the case out of the way. Also found power/lock buttons, and volume buttons were hard to press. I ordered another that looks just like it, but has no hard plastic, and i love it!

Also, I bought the case for 7.95 free shipping off ebay, they have the black case, and the clear case for under 7

What if I use the z4 root app? Do I get a recovery or is it just a simple root and that's it?

[EVO 4G General] dkdude36:
Doesn't work on the evo. check the link in my sig.
[EVO 4G General] detcup4evr:
I used Z4Root about a week ago on a stock Evo, with the most recent software, at the bar and within 10 mins I had my friends Evo working as a hot spot. Now this is only a temporary root and doesn’t give you complete control of your phone. No recovery and other benefits of full root.

Now Z4oot is nice if all you want to do is tether, or maybe to use Titanium Backup. But it gets old quick and your time will be better spent using a permanent method of root. With all the great methods out their there isn’t a reason to use temporary root.

When I first rooted I used the temporary unrevoked method (pretty much the same as z4root). I have since moved on to full nand unlock I love the ability to take backups try some mod like a custom battery icon or a Rosie modification, or even a Rom with new sense (Warm Z Rocks!) and Know I can restore my phone back to a perfectly good working order.

I recommend using Unrevoked 3. Used that about 2 weeks ago to reroot my coworker’s evo after unrooting for warranty work.

Anyone who has done it or knows for sure a kernal to flash on the stock rom for perm overclocking. I tried on i thought was right and it soft bricked the phone until i figured out the correct kernal back to stock.

I had OC'd the stock rom before the bad flash using g script. Now i cant get that to work.

Im perm rooted s-off and subsidy unlocked.

Im sure ive missed it somewhere. But im so tired of searching and reading for days and not finding a direct answer to this.:cool:

hi matey, have you found a way of doing this yet matey? :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
Yes I did. I followed the g script instructions. Doesn't stick. On reboot though. Have to run the g script. Have mine clocked to 1.57ghz.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Stock T-Mobile G2 or Stock Desire Z? They have different kernels. Plus, the 1.72 Sense ROM has a different kernel from the 1.34.

I used the Godspeed kernel (along with SetCPU) on the stock Desire Z ROM (Bell Canada) and it worked perfectly. Used it for a couple months before I went over to CM7. This is for the Sense 1.34 ROM.

If you are on the Sense 1.72 ROM, this looks to be what you want (no personal experience with 1.72): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=967153

did you ever try baconbits?

Alright just gave this a shot and it work on the stock. Yes it works:D

No boot loop or soft brick+

Oh and you also can choose diff OCs between 806 and the max, unlike with g script
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Its hard for people to help you if you don't give proper information, such as what kernel you tried, or even what version of the phone you have.

And if the guy that suggested baconbits helped you, how about thanking him?
[G2 and Desire Z General] DarkPyroGuy 09:
Baconbits is the only kernal that works with the stock G2, I have been using it for 3 months, and it works great. You need to have a custom ROM to have the other OC Kernals.

I experimented more today with underclocking, and I pulled 16ish hours with medium use. I was amazed.

Yes, you should already be using SetCPU, its what I use. Others use "CPU tuner" (I think thats what its called). With either you can set the max-min ghz of your cpu from 245-1497.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
Thank you to everyone who helped or offered help.

Sorry if i didnt give enough info. Guess I figured the experienced hackers would ask the new guys for more infor if it was needed.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pmcqueen:
good to hear baconbits worked for you. I remember trying to help you in another thread and thought I just made things worse for you, haha, so I'm glad you got it going.

now you just have to try and stop yourself from getting the custom ROM modding bug.. good luck with that. :)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xaltotun:
I must be dumb, stupid, or something :mad: ... Now I want to frakking bang my head on the wall :eek:

For the life of me, I cannot boot back into ClockWorkMod to install the latest DJ_Steve ROM. I previously was able to flash my Streak, but now I can't anymore. Granted, I don't play with my Streak as much as with my Captivate, but still, I should remember how to do this.

Here is what I do:

I open CWM

I click on Flash CWM Recovery

I wait for the "success" message

Then I click on Reboot into Recovery

Nothing happens... I power down and boot back normally :eek:

I've also tried this:

I open CWM

I click on Flash CWM Recovery

I wait for the "success" message

Then I click on "Install ROM from SD Card"

I navigate and choose my update.zip file; click Yes, Yes, etc.

Nothing happens. I power down and boot back normally

AAARRRRRGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

Now I've tried the above by holding, after step 4, the Power and Camera buttons, the Power and Volume Up/Down button, Power and Vol. Down, Power and Vol. Up, etc. You get the idea :D ...

I either end up into the white menu for Fastboot, or end up into (what I think is) the stock recovery. There I choose "Install Update from SD Card" and then the phone waits forever at the "Detect SD" menu.

What is it that I should do? can someone please either shoot me :rolleyes: or post some kind of detailed step-by-step, as if explained to a five year old :D

Thanks in advance!

I actually never could get ClockWorkMod to work on my streak no matter which version I picked. I got just as frustrated as you as I followed all of the given instructions and could never boot into CWM.

My suggestion (and the workaround I used) was to use fastboot and install StreakMod in the development section. It works 100% of the time for me and without any headaches.

I made it work at least a couple of times before.... Weird..... :confused:

My problem is, I run Windows as a VM inside a Mac (using Fusion) so I tried installing the Fastboot drivers and the rest, but I can't make it work reliably. It's like the drivers don't like being in a VM or something, each time I want to communicate with the Streak I have to reinstall everything.

So I tried installing StreakMod, and that also failed. Is there, somewhere in a post, the exact way to install StreakMod? Maybe I can make it work on someone else's PC...

I have very good eye sight. I can even see the pixels on the iPhone 4 screen. Eventually they were able to see it and replaced the phone. They were amazed at how I got the phone without a contract though. :)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HawkiesZA:
Really? So if you unlock the bootloader (guides should be available on the development forum) and you flash ClockworkMod recovery(CWM - again there are guides for this), then you can't flash the superuser.apk? I had some trouble, but it turns out that I had to mount /system in CWM for the .apk to flash properly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shrivelfig:
It's ridiculously easy to root the Nexus S. Before 2.3.3 you could root it without even unlocking the bootloader, now you have to unlock it first. Which is also ridiculously easy.

The only problem is that the unlocking process completely wipes all user data and the SD card. So before you root, do a complete backup. Then follow the instructions in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895545

if you have clockwork mod use this as a restore and you will have a rooted 2.3.3 its the easiest way to do it.

just unzip and put the backup folder in your clockworkmod recovery folder boot into recovery and restore 2.3.3 takes 2 minutes and you will boot up with a rooted 2.3.3

Go Launcher X messes up whenever the phone does not properly shutdown. It's always recommended to shut down and then turn back on, instead of reboot. (I think reboot is a hard reboot, not a soft one so it doesn't shutdown properly).
